title: Sesquiterpene lactones from Carpesium abrotanoides.
abstract: Phytochemical study on the ethanol extract of the aerial parts of Carpesium abrotanoides led to the isolation of two new sesquiterpene lactones, carabrolactone A (1) and carabrolactone B (2). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis.
